AUTHOR

My words reflect the voices often left out of the mainstream — but never out of OURSTORY.

As the author of Thank You for the Disrespect, I use storytelling as a tool for truth-telling. This book is more than memoir — it’s a mirror, holding up the lived experiences of Black British communities shaped by migration, miseducation, and resilience. I wrote it to unpack the silence, the shame, and the strength that comes from growing up in a system not designed for us. Through essays, social commentary, and lived reflection, I explore how pain becomes purpose — and how remembering who we are is the first step to reclaiming everything we’ve been told to forget.
